House of Fraser news: 31 stores to close - which ones are closing? FULL LIST of closures

HOUSE OF FRASER is closing stores to survive the current crisis hitting the British high street. Which stores are closing? Where will the closures be? It was revealed today the company is closing over half its stores, 31 in total, including its Oxford Street branch. This could affect 6,000 jobs.

Earlier this month, House of Fraser revealed it will close more than half its stores. It is expected to close 31 of its 59 shops, including its Oxford Street branch, in a move that could affect 6,000 jobs.

House of Fraser CEO Alex Williamson has said: “If we are to deliver a sustainable, long-term business supported by new liquidity then we need to make difficult decisions about our underperforming legacy stores.

"I am conscious that inaccurate speculation only feeds the ongoing uncertainty for my colleagues in the business and I reassure them we will share further news when we have it.”

House of Fraser’s latest statement reads: “House of Fraser reiterates its intention to propose a CVA in early June.

"The CVA is a condition of a transaction which will see international retailer C.banner acquire 51% of House of Fraser from current parent company, Cenbest. This is entirely consistent with the statement made on 2 May."
